Question 1006170: We know that energy is released by the sun. The fusion cycle that generates this energy involves hydrogen nucleus is about 1.7 x 10^-15m, but the diameter of the actual atom of hydrogen is about 140,000 times that amount. Represent the diameter of the whole atom using exponential notation

If the atomic diameter is 140,000 times the diameter of the nucleus, we merely multiply
140000 x (1.7 x 10^(-15)) = 2.38 x 10^-10 m
